NORTH COAST 500 ROAD TRIP - DAY 1

We have been looking forward to this trip for some time and here we are, flying the flag at Eilean Donan Castle. Although we started at Grangemouth, the official tour starts at Inverness, crosses over to the west coast and goes up round the north coast of Scotland. Although it covers a distance of 500 miles, we travelled just over 800 miles from our starting point. Our first destination is Kyle of Lochalsh and you can see two of our members in deep conversation in the Kyle Hotel in the extra photos. We're heading for Ullapool tomorrow, watch this space!
